About the Book

In this coming-of-age tale that spans the 1950s and 1960s in the South Bronx, follow a young man through his journey from toddler to adulthood as he navigates family, friendship, and education. At times humorous, at other times gut-wrenching, his experiences of Catholic school, as a young athlete, and as a victim of street violence are laid out bare on the page. The novel also explores the stories of families, some having lived in their small enclave for generations, forced to abandon their neighborhood as it undergoes societal upheaval.

Though this fictionalized memoir focuses on one man's journey, The Bathtub Wasn't in the Kitchen Anymore! also opens the window into a dying New York City neighborhood. With colorful descriptions of real, if long-forgotten places in the South Bronx and providing a true taste of urban culture, it will appeal not only to those in search of a touching, fact-based story but to social historians, sociologists and urbanists.
About the Author: Gerade DeMichele is an educator and faculty member at the City University of New York's Hunter College, Graduate Center and the School of Professional Studies. He has also held administrative appointments at the City University and State University of New York, including that of Vice President and Deputy to the President at Hunter College. His research interests include education leadership, education policy, online and blended learning, multimedia instructional models, and research methods. He is also the author of sixteen books and numerous articles on the subjects of education leadership, technology, and higher education in the post-recession era.

He has been involved in major grants from the U.S. Department of Education, the National Science Foundation, IBM, and the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation. He was a member of a research project funded by the U.S. Department of Education - Institute for Education Sciences, the purpose of which was to conduct a meta-analysis on what works in postsecondary online education (2017-2019). In 1998, he co-founded CUNY Online, a multi-million-dollar initiative funded by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation that provides support services to faculty using the Internet for course development. He was a founding member and continues to serve on the Board of Directors of the Online Learning Consortium (formerly the Sloan Consortium).

His blog, which he started in 2009, has averaged over 600,000 visitors annually. He has received wide recognition for his scholarship and research, including being named the 2010 recipient of the Alfred P. Sloan Consortium's (now the Online Learning Consortium) National Award for Outstanding Achievement in Online Education by an Individual.

Our Bathtub Wasn't in the Kitchen Anymore! is his first work of fiction.
